Bluefire Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I am working on an XML template that has a button that allows the site to resize and go full screen. This has disastrous results. I want to delete or disable the resize button but when I did the site would not work at all. I went into the fla file and deleted the movie clip from the library. WRONG. How do I safely remove this component? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I think this really depends on how the Flash file is designed/coded... so there isn't really any specific advice we can give you without looking at the source .fla. Have you considered trying to hide the button, rather than removing it completely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefire Posted October 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 That might work. I will try masking the button. I will also look through the src codes and see what I can change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefire Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 Update: I asked the author about removing the button. He said this: "Make a modification on one of the movie clips in the fla library. It's called RightButtonPanel. Open it by double clicking and remove the full screen button. After doing this, go to the src directory, open PhotoGallery.as and remove the full screen button reference in the init function. Save and recompile." Fine. I did that...8 times with variations. But again, once I remove or delete the button the site will not load. Then he asked this. "Did you add the src directory to your classpaths? Does it successfully compile?" Yes I did, but how do I compile it? I thought by hitting the "publish" button it should work. When I publish I am warned about a missing font and asked if I want to override something-or-other. It doesn't matter whether I say yes or no. It still won't work. Can anyone please tell me about compiling src's and classpaths in Flash?

Bluefire Posted October 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 SOLVED! I wasn't deleting the entire button. I was only deleting the instance on the stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
